$650.00 | | Strengths: | I bought this bike because I got a great deal on it. Full XT drivetrain, Ritchey stem, seatpost, and stem. WTB Rocket saddle and Epicwolf tires. I never heard of the wheels that are on it but they are great so far. This bike is light and rails down trails. I did not think I would like the shape of the frame at first but it handles great and one I got it out of the box it looked sweet. The suspension works great and I have had no problems with it so far. | | Weaknesses: | None so far. | | Similar Products Used: | Raleigh Ram 2.0, Specialized and Trek. | | Bike Setup: | Stock. It came with everything described in the specs. Nothing to upgrade. XT drive train, Deore Hydro disc brackes,Rock Shox Duke and Sid, Shimano Clipless pedals, Rirchey and WTB components. Perfect! | | Bottom Line: | This bike was worth every cent I spent on it. It is light, accelerates, and handles great. It looks good and the component package works great. I love the hydro disc brakes. Some of my friends who have seen the bike can not believe this bike is a Raleigh. One of them is already thinking about buying one himself. He is currently ridding a bike from one of the other "BIG NAMES" out there. He spent more and the components do not even compare. If you look hard enough and find this bike below MSRP, get it. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
